POMP IN LANGUAGE.
A Matter Of Interest to Writers and Lovers
of Good Literature.

of Good Literature.
People are apt enough to say, "Pomp
in language is hateful; nothing but
what is simple and unadorned is toler-
able" and then to turn from this pro-
position to instance some passage of
English prose as perfect, in which the
writer can be seen, if we look below
the surface, to have shown the most
extreme solicitude for getting that well
ordered procession of sound and sense
which is essential not only to dignified,
but to all clear and lucid. writing.
When we say we hate pomp in writing.
we really mean bad pomp, not good.
DR.. johnson is often the extreme in
stance of bad pomp in words-of
pompousness of language. But if he
too often fell into the strutting vein so
inimitably parodied in the Rejected
ADDRESSED" he could also marshal his
phrases and periods with rhythm of
exquisite grace. There are volumes in
the style of: Professions lavishly eff
fused and parsimoniously verified are
alike inconsistent with the precepts of
innate rectitude and the practice of
external policy; let it not then be
conjectured that because we are I'M
assuming We are imbeciles; that for
bearance is any indication of de-
spondcncy, or humility of demerit."
Owe quote from the parody, which
is a convenient qulntessence of DIR.
Johnson's faults of style.) But there
are also passages like that which
closes the Life of Milton" or the pref
ace to the Dictionary. 1t is the good,
not the bad, pomp of language. when
Johnson writes Us he does of Millions
great poems: His great works were
performed under discountcnance, and in
blindness, but difficulties vanished at
his touch; he was born for whatever is
arduous, and his work is not the great
est of heroic poems only because it is
not the first" In our own day we
have seen another instance of writer
who. though he had not sufficient taste
to prevent him falling constantly into
an extreme and, indeed, ridiculous
pomposity of the true pomp. Lord
Beaconsfield wrote the passages on the
moon in Vivian Grey" and "Tancred. /"
buthe also wrote the impressive tribute
to Lord George Bentinck. We must.
however, leave the subject of the
charm of pomp in words, with so much
limited as to the conditions that govern
it. To pursue it in any sense ade-
quately would no doubt lead one along
some of the most delightful paths of
English literature. but the subject is
one which can not properly be tackled
on to the more general view of the
charm of the pomp which we have en-
deavored to set before our readers

State Press Comment.

Bayou Sara Sun: seThe objection
to third term increases daily in the
minds and hearts of our thinking
people"
Bayou Sara Sun: ssOne of the
purest and Hottest characters of
Louisiana, Gen. Nichols represents
in the highest degree the best inter-
ests and the best sentiment of our
State"
Louisiana Journal, Claiborne par
ish: cit seems now that there will
be no fight for Gov. McEnery in this
parish. The few friends that the
Governor has in this parish have
enough discretion to decline to butt
their heads against brick wall"
Morgan City Review: No parish
in the State has been more under a
personal government" than this one,
and it is so to-day. The people here
are not indebted to the governor for
anything He will not even let us
have our representatives on the
school board.
Natchitoches Review: 1.-The Re-
view is of the opinion that as regards
the Offices of Auditor and Secretary
Of State, the present incumbents,
Messrs. O. B. Steele and Oscar Arroyo,
should be retained if they desire q
re election. It is hardly possible to
find two more competent men in the
State"
Winfield Sentinel: CHOW in our
own parish of Winn, we also held an
election for the Office of police jurors
and assessor, and eight police jurors
and an assessor elected by the people
were recommended to Gov. McEnery
for his appointment, but the voice Of
the people was completely ignored by
our just governor and one man was
allowed to say who should be asses
sor and who should control the 6nan-
ces of the parish of Winn. The re-
suit being two out of the eight elect
ed to the Office of police juror were
appointed and it so happened that
they were McEnery men, one of them
not even beinga swayback Democrat
but Republican"
STATE FINANcEs.-The ssOuachita

Notwithstanding the fact that Lou
isiana pays higher rate of taxation
than any other Southern State, our 4
per cent bonds are lower than those
Of any other State. Notwithstanding
our taxes are promptly collected, our
finances are in a desperate and con
stantly depreciating condition for the
reason that in defiance of the Consti-
tuition, the Legislature and the Gov
crnor have approved bills making ap-
preparations in excess of the revenue
and we now have large floating debt
which nobody has even attempted to
defend or excuse. This floating debt
which has been created in defiance Of
the Constitution, is constant source

SOUTHERN CorroN M1LLs.-Says the
New Orleans Picayune: "The an
nual report of the National Cotton
Exchange gives the cotton consump-
ton of Southern mills during the
year ending August 81 as 401, 453
bales, against 3S1, O66 last year, and
316,O62 the year before. The spin
ming industry in the South has en-
tirely recovered from the depression
of three years ago, and was more
prosperous during the season than
for several years.
Many of the old mills have in
creased their spindles and many new
mills are under construction at the
present time, while additional ones
are projected. Something like 10000
new spindles were set in motion dur
ing the year, and the new mills will
have about 100000. The average fo1
Southern mills is about one bale to
three spindles, so that this new ma
chinery will require $4,000 bales Of
cotton for years work"

We ask the attention of our readers
to the article from the arcadia Rec
brd" published in this issue of the
Banner" It is difficult to believe
that respectable journalists who make
90 absurd q charge against General
Nichols as that his election would
Africanize this State, really believe
what they write.
The charge is almost too silly and
absurd to provoke a refutation, as
the life Of our gallant chief has been
in its every act q contradiction to this
attempted aspersion Of the character
Of one Of the truest, noblest and
bravest Sons Of Louisiana.
Such accusations must return to
plague their inventors, and the peo-
Pile win zee to it that the character of
Nichols shall receive no harm.

Extract from Gen. Allen Thomas
speech at Opelousas:
'Look at his (Gov McEnery's) con-
duct in regard to the Goth Judicial
District. Gov. McKnoblock's broth
er had been defeated as candidate
for Judge, but the Legislature went
to work to provide for this gentle
man. They allowed another Judge
in that District, although Judge
Taylor Beattie, over his own sigma
ture had declared that there was not
enough work for one man to do
Yet another Judge was allowed, and
Gov McEnery appointed Gov. Knob
locks brother. He had also to divide
the office of Commissioner of Immi
grafton and Agriculture in order that
another favorite might be provided
for"
We copy the above in order to re-
mind our readers that their Repre-
sentatives, both parish and Senatorial,
in the last Legislature endeavored to
subdivide this Judicial District, when
it is we'll known that our present able
Judge is not ON active duty more
than half his time.
The measure failed Of passage, but
why was the effort made except to
provide two more good positions
